Our next post will be reserved for new and infrequent commenters
A very good morning from your Wednesday editor.
Our cheery morning photo (above) shows Stephen Fry and Elliott Spencer. Many congratulations to them both on their forthcoming marriage, the plan for which became public yesterday.
We’re going to try something a bit different today.
As an experiment, comments on the next post, to follow in ten minutes’ time, will be moderated and reserved for new and infrequent commenters on this site.
“Infrequent” is defined as having posted less than five comments in the last month.
We have 40 posts a week where our frequent commenters have more than enough space to express their views. We welcome those views but we’d like to try giving a little breathing space especially to people who haven’t commented here before or have done so only a little recently.
